QUESTION: Do you think all California cities and counties should immediately lift their mask mandates after California Governor Gavin Newsom and the Mayors of SF and LA (along with almost the entire crowd) were seen maskless at the Rams -vs- 49ers game over the weekend?

Talk about it….

It’s said “What’s good for the goose is good for the gander.” In this case both the goose and gander had no masks. Some can play follow the leaders. For the rest of us, maybe a personal option rather than a demand.

Dr Jellyfinger February 1, 2022 - 1:34 PM - 1:34 PM

That was a fowl remark.

Vindex February 1, 2022 - 1:45 PM - 1:45 PM

I think masks should be optional for all people except for Breed and Newsom… they are mandated to wear one the rest of their lives.

94521 February 1, 2022 - 12:32 PM - 12:32 PM

Yes! I’ve been following it this whole time, but enough is enough. Omicron + vaccines have brought herd immunity. Health officials should lift restrictions as quickly as they implemented them otherwise it erodes credibility.

Bella February 1, 2022 - 12:32 PM - 12:32 PM

Yes, it is time to leave it up to the individual. Lead by example is not happening here. With that said, it is extremely clear and has been, that those who are against will do what they want anyway.

Roz February 1, 2022 - 12:36 PM - 12:36 PM

YES! Time to lift the mask mandates.
Since with or without vaccines and/or masks, people are catching Covid.
If you still want to wear a mask, then do so…. it’s a choice.

Simonpure February 1, 2022 - 1:55 PM - 1:55 PM

I agree Roz…I will probably always wear mine outdoors as I found it helps a lot with my allergies.

Roz February 1, 2022 - 2:35 PM - 2:35 PM

Simonpure~

I agree…..totally helps with outdoor allergies.
Plus, nasty dirty yardwork, when I’m better & weather is warmer.

Still working on getting better here….Hubby is well.
Well Wishes, for You & the Family my Friend :).

Donk February 1, 2022 - 12:37 PM - 12:37 PM

yes and burn them while you are at it.

KT February 1, 2022 - 12:37 PM - 12:37 PM

YES!!! If Newsom and friends don’t follow their own rules then why should the rest of us have to? If you want to wear one, go for it, but it’s obvious that they don’t work and all these unmasked people will be seen in 2 weeks at the Super Bowl.

chuckie the troll February 1, 2022 - 12:43 PM - 12:43 PM

Follow the science and what most other sane states have done and ditch the Mask Mania Mandates. Wear one if you wish, but end the tyranny for everyone else.

WC---Creeker February 1, 2022 - 12:45 PM - 12:45 PM

We should, they don’t seem to work, if so why would Omicron spread so fast when we’re all wearing masks. Later we should implement a ban on wearing them.

donk February 1, 2022 - 4:27 PM - 4:27 PM

+10000

bdml February 1, 2022 - 12:46 PM - 12:46 PM

YES, we never should have had them…

Old-school guy February 1, 2022 - 12:54 PM - 12:54 PM

Ask Governor Hypocrite.

Kentucky Derby February 1, 2022 - 12:55 PM - 12:55 PM

Yes! Less than 10 states have a mask mandate (blue, purple and red) and at this point masks should be optional. Unless you’re wearing an N95(and most people aren’t) your mask is doing very little if any good anyway.

Jeff (the other one) February 1, 2022 - 12:57 PM - 12:57 PM

Newsom is, quite frankly, a horrible excuse for a “leader.” Typical do as I mandate, not as I do, and then lie when confronted. That aside, the mask mandate is ridiculous, and not only should be lifted, but should have never been ruled from our benevolent nannies to begin with.

YES YES YES February 1, 2022 - 1:07 PM - 1:07 PM

Absolutely! They need to be gone with the mandate. Let individuals who want to wear them, wear them. Let the rest of us be free. I was recently out of state and there was no mandate and people were still wearing masks if they wanted, mostly elderly but I think we are at a point where is should be a personal decision not a mandated one.

I have known many people who have followed the guideline to the extreme and still contracted COVID; yet me and my family who have mostly been following but not 100% have yet to contract COVID (knock on wood).

You do you and I will do me and all will live happily ever after.

Puffandstuff February 1, 2022 - 1:08 PM - 1:08 PM

Yes!!!

Deb Shay February 1, 2022 - 1:19 PM - 1:19 PM

There never should have been any to begin with. They are nothing but a knee-jerk reaction from megalomaniac overlords.

BORbeliever February 1, 2022 - 1:20 PM - 1:20 PM

No. I think we should all embrace a two-tier society where a small group of leaders tells everyone else what to do.

Gavin Newsom, Eric Garcetti, Leonardi DiCaprio, and Magic Johnson are clearly better, smarter, and more moral than the rest of us. I think we should willingly submit to their leadership and do as they say, not as they do.

Bruh February 1, 2022 - 1:27 PM - 1:27 PM

Gavin, breed, and that schmuck LA mayor all don’t care about masks. They’re a little behind on the ditching masks narrative, but they finally caught up it seems.

As far as I’m concerned the mask mandate ended on Sunday with your majesty Gavin leading the way.

Dr Jellyfinger February 1, 2022 - 1:32 PM - 1:32 PM

It’s all a bunch of looney left wing bullcrap!

Old Timer February 1, 2022 - 1:35 PM - 1:35 PM

I will tell what I think.It’s about time the stupid people that put our Governor in office better change there minds.It’s already ruined to the point of no return.When the population voted to uphold the death penalty and a__h__e over turned the vote that should have been one of your first clues.Hope you are proud of the state you live in.

Johnnycomelately February 1, 2022 - 1:36 PM - 1:36 PM

Is this post asked by high schoolers?Would any real adult need to ask this?And whats the point?

Ricardoh February 1, 2022 - 1:37 PM - 1:37 PM

I agree with Yes Yes Yes. Wear them if you want but make them non mandatory. Especially for kids in school.

Anonx February 1, 2022 - 1:51 PM - 1:51 PM

Meanwhile kids in schools are getting yelled at/punished for not wearing masks properly. It’s sad really!

Puffandstuff February 1, 2022 - 2:20 PM - 2:20 PM

Agreed Anonx

It insane the way the yard duty and teachers scream at the high school kids in Martinez if their nose is exposed for a second to breath some unmasked air. Total abuse of “ power” . Quite disgusting.
Also, kids that haven’t been jabbed with the experimental covid 19 therapy are not allowed to go to the AHS senior all-nighter.
The discrimination is horrible
So glad we are leaving this state!!!

Mutts February 1, 2022 - 2:14 PM - 2:14 PM

We have to ask ourselves if it’s that bad when elected officials don’t wear masks. Covid numbers are inflated. They know it but don’t want the general public to know it.

Anon February 1, 2022 - 2:15 PM - 2:15 PM

There’s too many crabs in a bucket types in California who wish everyone to be as miserable as they are.

Will February 1, 2022 - 3:15 PM - 3:15 PM

Yes, like yesterday. Denver just lifted their mask mandates earlier this week (although kept masks on kids in schools apparently b/c leftists like torturing children or something).

It’s been nearly two full years of this mask crap, time to end it for everyone. If Comrade Gavin doesn’t have to wear a mask indoors why should anyone else be required to?

Exit 12A February 1, 2022 - 3:24 PM - 3:24 PM

.
Masks should be optional, everywhere.

OverWhelmed February 1, 2022 - 3:44 PM - 3:44 PM

The mandates should never have been put in place to begin with.

Jojo The Circus Clown February 1, 2022 - 3:55 PM - 3:55 PM

Of course not … how do you expect the mask manufacturers to make money … wtf … dumb suggestion

Rose February 1, 2022 - 4:04 PM - 4:04 PM

Yes lift the mask mandate! Virtuosity went out the window years ago for the politicians. They only care about themselves and their immediate family. Why should the norm have to suffer.

Whoe Jim February 1, 2022 - 4:08 PM - 4:08 PM

How many times can Newsom be caught at being a hypocrite in any fashion, (which is proven many by the way), before people realize he is unfit to hold office of any kind? I wouldn’t vote that clown into the circus! Pardon to the circus clowns…..

S February 1, 2022 - 5:30 PM - 5:30 PM

Jojo forgives you.

Cellophane February 1, 2022 - 4:32 PM - 4:32 PM

Yes!

Steven powers February 1, 2022 - 4:34 PM - 4:34 PM

Yes they should, we have been to other counties and states and there were no mandates

Ellen February 1, 2022 - 5:37 PM - 5:37 PM

Yes, especially if you are vaccinated and boosted. Also should be for the kids. It’s frustrating to walk by restaurants and see them packed with people with no masks and then to think my kids have to wear one all day. It doesn’t make sense. Also, my kids got Covid while being masked at school. I dont think they work for the kids anyway.

The Fearless Spectator February 1, 2022 - 8:22 PM - 8:22 PM

Gavin Newsom and his George Soros elected friends will be flushed to the bowels of the earth where the guy with the pointed stick conducts business.

Their antics are nothing more than arrogant posturing. Their mandates are for them, not us. It’s simply a psychological purge for them, just like a parent who beats their child unnecessarily. These people are temporary, and nobody will care to remember them.

Duck February 2, 2022 - 1:08 AM - 1:08 AM

Dr Jellyfinger February

That was a fowl remark.

Excuse me!!!

Duck February 2, 2022 - 1:09 AM - 1:09 AM

” Dr Jellyfinger

That was a fowl remark.”

Excuse me!!!

Deb Shay February 2, 2022 - 6:04 AM - 6:04 AM

True. I dont wear a mask anywhere. No one says anything.

Bob Kazamakis February 2, 2022 - 4:21 PM - 4:21 PM

Personally, I like not having to see other people’s faces; and, I imagine, they like not having to see my ugly mug either. So, for those reasons, I’m in favor of mask wearing; but, that has nothing to do with Covid.

African Queen February 2, 2022 - 5:18 PM - 5:18 PM

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!ABSOLUTELY!!!!!!!!!

T. Payne February 3, 2022 - 7:53 AM - 7:53 AM

They should have never been implemented in the first place. But since they were in some places, study after study are now showing that cloth masks and medical masks are ineffective at stopping human to human transmission of covid 19. My analogy since the beginning was that wearing a mask to stop a virus, is like using a chain link fence to keep mosquitos out of your house.

https://luis46pr.wordpress.com/2021/03/12/cdc-report-admits-mask-wearing-provides-no-real-protection-against-covid/

While we are at it, Johns Hopkins also shows that lockdowns don’t work and actually do more harm that good.

It is time to stop trusting the propagandists in the media, big tech, and government. Be curious, read, critically think for yourself. When government and media resort to censorship of opposing views and data, the ideas they are defending are usually indefensible.
